Dear Readers,last year it was the 100th anniversary of the wonderful "World War 1 Christmas Truce".And I could bite my ass that I forgot. But this year I saw a documentary called "WW1 In Colours" from the BBC and it really touched me.So this year's post is about the miracle that happened 101 years ago when soldiers refused to fight and sang corals instead and played soccer together in no-man's land between the trenches in Belgium and France.

Read more here...I am not very religious but I believe in the good in man - when it really comes to the Point.

THE FARM's "All Together Now" from 1991 is about this night, when the decided not to fight.

Remember boy that your forefathers died Lost in millions for a country's pride They never mention the trenches of Belgium When they stopped fighting and they were one

A spirit stronger than war was working that night December 1914 cold, clear and bright Countries' borders were right out of sight They joined together and decided not to fight

All together now All together now All together now In no man's land, together

The same old story again All those tears shed in vain Nothing learnt and nothing gained Only hope remains

All together now All together now All together now In no man's land, together

The boys had their say, they said no Stop the slaughter and let's go home Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go

The boys had their say, they said no Stop the slaughter and let's go home Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go home

All together now All together now All together now In no man's land, together
